Teaching Approach
It depends on the age, for adults I use the Natural method, based on the active involvement of the student in both speaking and listening to the new language in realistic everyday situations. The student reads, listens or watches/experiment situations, events from/about his immediate environment and then we work on them together. The process consists of a gradual acquisition of grammatical structure and vocabulary. The learner is encouraged to think in the target language rather than translate. He or she hears and uses the language before seeing it written. For kids, we work on their homework but we connect them to their lives, example approach, the process consists on connect learning with memorizing experimented events.
